Asparagus Quiche With Ricotta Cheese

This YUMMY recipe was given to me last year by my good friend Elena. I always make it when I have steamed asparagus leftovers or for a buffet.

INGREDIENTS
Crust:
2 cups Flour
1/2 cup Butter
3/4 cup Ricotta Cheese
1 tsp Salt
Filling:
1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese
1/2 Shredded Cheese (I used Mozzarella)
7 to 8 stalks boiled asparagus + some for decoration
Ricotta Cheese
3 Eggs
1 tsp salt


For the crust:

I used my Thermomix food processor. Combine flour, butter, ricotta cheese and salt.

Roll out the pastry on a floured surface; about 1/4-inch thick. Fit into a 9-inch pan

For the Filling:

With ht food processor mix Parmesan, shredded Mozzarella and the asparagus. Remember to leave some for decoration.

Add Ricotta Cheese, eggs and salt and mix everything.

Pour the filling mix in the pan

Arrange the extra asparagus and bake for 30-40 mins at 350°.



Here is what it will look like when is done


Enjoy! Thank you to Rhoda @ Southern Hospitality for the tutorial on how to enlarge pictures!

  12. I'm sorry, quiche isn't instinctive for me... how much ricotta cheese goes in the filling?
    I'd love to try this recipe.
